In her previous life, Shi Yuan was a demon everyone wanted dead. When she died, not even ashes remained.
She abandoned her sect and had blood on her hands. The world could not tolerate her, and even her fiance and best friend were utterly disappointed in her, going so far as to join the battle to kill her.
Reborn one day, Shi Yuan's greatest wish was to live quietly as a village girl with a supernatural ability, and never again get involved with the cultivation world.
But things did not go as planned. Not only did she get caught up in the cultivation world's turmoil, she was also hauled back to the sect by the man she feared most and placed under strict watch.
Shi Yuan could only keep her head down, guard her secret identity, and wait for a chance to escape.
But why... did it seem like everyone knew who she was beneath that secret identity?
Fine, she would stop pretending!
She would settle every score and avenge every wrong. Let the killing begin.
She would clear her name and uncover her origins.
But after cutting a bloody swath through her enemies and finally clearing her name, she discovered that something seemed off about her master.
And it wasn't just her coldhearted, ruthless master. Her former fiance and once-best friend were acting strange, too...
Shi Yuan chose
Lu Xilou had spent his life cultivating and was renowned throughout the cultivation world. First, for his coldness. Second, for his strength. Third, because his disciple was a demon everyone wanted dead.
Then his disciple died.
People found that Lu Xilou had become even colder, more deranged, and more despondent.
Until one day, Lu Xilou met that village girl. Although her face looked nothing like before, he recognized her at a glance.
He swore he would never let his little disciple be put in danger again. Then he turned around and saw the village girl swallow a magical treasure whole, leaving him in a cold sweat.
She was still trying to run away.
Lu Xilou gritted his teeth, wanting to devour this disobedient disciple.
But she said, "I love you, beyond mountains and seas, beyond the passage of time. If I won't go to hell, you aren't allowed to, either!"
And so Lu Xilou feared nothing for the rest of his life.
